Application

Nafion™ perfluorinated resin solution is widely used as an electrolytic material. It can be used in the formation of a composite membrane with metal oxides. The membrane further facilitates the formation of chemically stable proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells. It may be coated on mesoporous metallic films to improve the detection and selectivity of biomarkers. It may form a composite electrode material with graphene for glucose biosensors.
Support material for an integrated system which used solar energy to drive chemical reactions. Acts as a superacid catalyst for organic synthesis. When formed as metal composites, can be used as artificial muscle actuators, solid electrolytes for the analysis of electroactive species in organic media, or as electrodes in organic electrosynthesis.
Used to solubilize carbon nanotubes. Carbon nanotube solutions have been explored as amperometric biosensors.

The ability to solubilize single-wall and multiwall carbon nanotubes (CNT) in the presence of the perfluorinated polymer Nafion is described. Such use of Nafion as a solubilizing agent for CNT overcomes a major obstacle for creating CNT-based biosensing devices. Their
